Marinelli himself said he preferred playing on the left. Maybe you probably know Martineli more than Martineli.
Watch his goal against Chelsea and tell me his starting position in that game. Even in cup games when Arsenal played him up-front because Nkatiah was out on loan, he always attacked from the left.

Iwobi is tidy player but not the kind of player to run your offense. His end product is flat out poor.
3 youngsters promoted in his stead all out performed him this season and yet, you claim Arsenal made an error selling him.
Iwobi can have a decent career of course but it appears he wasn't destined to play for the top dogs. Watch him shine at Crystal Palace, Aston Villa or somewhere like Southampton with less pressure.
ok

I recall vividly a point Emery hired a personal coach for Iwobi to work on his finishing. That same season Iwobi returned just 3goals and 4 assists.
Iwobi is can be tidy at times with odd nutmeg here and there but that's just about it. Every other thing is unpolished.

Martinelli is a striker bro...and also it is easier to get assists from crosses and cut backs is Saka's case. As for that willock wey you bring,it is laughable. You can't use goals only to compare Joe with Iwobi. Arsenal are 16th in term of goalscoring chances created this season. That should tell you why we really missed Iwobi in the final third. Iwobi might be inconsistent but all your arguments were bore on hate. Willock of all people? Damn
Yep. Plus we missed Iwobi's ball carrying ability in the beginning of the season when Pepe was struggling to settle in.
The emergence of the Ceballos helped a bit in that regard.
Martinelli is a bit like Auba in the sense that he has poor holdup play. Freddie and Arteta eventually realized you can't have both him and auba in the starting 11 as it'll be turnover galore.
Willock had 3 good games earlier in the season and was mostly shit after that.

CAF should rethink about postponing AFCON until 2022. It would be in Africa's best interests to have some competition before the World Cup as the Europeans will be playing the Euro's right before the tournament.

You're still pushing this? Your point being that Willock isn't a bench player? Mind you, this season was Arsenals worst ever with 3 different managers.
You're talking of a player in his first season dropping 5 goals. A grand total Iwobi have never managed in his career?
Oga abeg.

Below is Iwobi stat in his last season at arsenal. Total of 6 goals and 9 assists.

So how has he not managed more than 3 goals a season in his career??

Yes. 1 assist and 5goals for a bench player. Iwobi have not managed more than 4goals in a season.

Your comparison isn't even fair and it's shows sentiments. You add willock goals contribution in all competition against Iwobi's premier league goal contribution.

And by the way this isn't even his first season with arsenal

The only reason he was earning rave reviews was because he was playing for Arsenal. Now he is at Everton and is slot been exposed...

SMH....if we developed our talents, players like Iwobi have no business even playing in our midfield

Pep is no genius in this regard. The man has spent £400M in buying just defenders alone in his time so far in Man city.
Any half Wit on that sort of money can replicate his body of work building Man city defence.

What exactly is he doing with Ake, a left footed center back when he already has Laporte? Can he play 2 left footed players in center back?

Bro, that is why I call guardiola a fraud

Fraudiola is more like it

I tell andrewbaba44 a lot of times....any coach from league one in England can do just as well at Man city with the money at his disposal...

You spend nearly a billion on transfers and you're acting as of you're the best coach in the world

Ask many football fans and trust me, their first choice won't be Fraudiola

22 years. Still young enough to start but you need to do a lot of training to get yourself up to speed. In two years from now you can be a pro.

The earlier the better. This period would have been good for you because lots of trials will be going on. Even if you don't make it, you can be ready from the next. A friend of mine much older than you still got signed for a club in London after trials. But, however the guy has been working hard before travelling for the trial.

Not late at all.

With news of Eric Garcia's possible departure sinking in with Guardiola confirming Garcia rejected a new contract offer, I just have to express how impressed I am with what he has done so far.

Eric Garcia was a player who gave me an epiphany of the future of how football will develop. Defenders who will play like Xavi and Iniesta will become the toast of the coming years.

Also, forwards with lots of skills will also be toast.

I hope Guardiola still lets him play the remaining games of the season.

Use this opportunity to say goodbye to the young little genius who in his little way changed football for the better.

I WILL NOT CRY. cry

Why not compare Liverpool squad?

We are over charged that is all. Our bulk money on players are above their value. Clubs don't like selling to city, so we over pay. We don't have star power to pull players off clubs.

It is not that Cancelo or Stones are worth the kind of money they cost us to equate it to buying titles. We also have to spend a fortune to replace Demiechelis, Zabaleta, Sagna, Clichy, Kolarov and now Kompany. No team faced with such task. Lots of players Guardiola met and has managed them. Lost in the transfer market by not going overboard like Sanchez and Van Dijk.

That fraud talk is a lie. If not Guardiola won't have to convert a central midfielder like Zinchenko to a left back to cope. Or convert Fernandinho to a defender. These players never played defence all their lives.

Only someone not true to the game will try to discredit the massive contribution Pep has done to football.

How many top coaches will buy a kid like Gabriel Jesus and transform him to a top player in World football? The transformation of Sterling is clear to see. Improving Aguero who was already a top player. De Bruyne's best form in his life happened under Guardiola.

What about Guardiola's patience with an injured Gundogan that was out due to injury for over a year.

You just write fraud because you do not even understand the dynamics of work that goes in to get City playing the way they do.

Sterling was balling even at Liverpool.

If he remained, he would perform even better under Klopp

Fabinho and Milner that play full backs nko?

If it was Fraudiola, he would have bought all the full backs in the world

When you spend more than 70m on a player, he must be willing to convert ASAP if the need arises, so I see nothing new in what your Fraudiola did with Zinchenko.

Fraudiola isn't the first coach to convert players, thus I see nothing new...say something else

I did not say anything wrong about Klopp. You are the one shouting fraud and buying to win.

So if it is just buying to win, would we be converting players who are not defenders. By the way, Milner played defence role at City multiple times before Klopp.

I am a fan of Klopp, love his philosophy and support him a lot. I learnt not to pitch people but appreciate them. So telling me Klopp's achievements is off tangent. He is a wonderful coach.

But trying to discredit Guardiola's impact on Sterling is totally discrediting your understanding of football and throws your opinion in a dumpster.

If Guardiola held Manchester United’s team under Mourinho, he would have transformed them to one of the best playing sides in Europe.

At least I can think of Mikhitaryan, Mata, Herrera, Pogba, Sanchez, Shaw, Rojo, if I am correct, Bailly. Ha.

How Mourinho used that team to get relegation form remains a mystery to football lovers.
